"Hiroshige's exaggerated single-point perspective"
editI don't understand "Hiroshige's exaggerated single-point perspective"—where is the vanishing point supposed to be? Do the sources really say this? Curly Turkey ¡gobble! 21:09, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Yes they do. Supposedly this is part of what Hiroshige is famous for and IIRC what was adopted by ?Monet? and via him the rest of the Impressionists so that the eye is drawn to the vanishing point and when there's nothing there it then wanders around iving the 'impression' required. I suspect in this image it just means that he has made the plum tree in the foreground too big. Hiroshige definitely tends to put large objects close to the camera with then a gap before things further away. JMiall₰ 21:22, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
Famousness in lead
editI think I slightly misread or misstated the source, but the 'Oshashi Bridge & Atake in a suden shower' source claims this series is his unquestionable masterpiece and the Honolulu source says it is 'one of the best-known Hiroshige prints outside Japan' and I don't think that 'and this is perhaps the most famous print outside Japan, from what is possibly his greatest series of woodcuts.' is a terrible rewording of this to give some context to people who are reading the article without having much background.
